Coming off a 6-0 drubbing at Chelsea on Saturday, the Gunners endured another demoralising result after rallying for a 2-1 lead only to concede a late equaliser.

Vermaelen felt match fitness was not an issue as they allowed the visitors to dent their title ambitions in stoppage time.

"The most important thing today was to react well after the defeat on Saturday and get a good result. We worked hard for it, but in the end 2-2, we're not happy with that," the Belgian defender told Sky Sports.
